ONE
BILLION RISING - TO STOP VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN AND GIRLS
On 14th February 2013, it will be V-Day’s Largest Day of Action Ever. I will join with activists around the world for
ONE BILLION RISING, the largest day of action in the history of
V-Day, the global activist movement to end violence against women and
girls.
ONE
BILLION RISING began as a call to action based on the staggering
statistic that 1 in 3 women on the planet will be beaten or raped
during her lifetime. With the world population at 7 billion, this
adds up to more than ONE BILLION WOMEN AND GIRLS.
This is V-Day’s 15th anniversary, and I will join activists, writers, thinkers, celebrities, and women and men across the world as we express their outrage, demand change, strike, dance, and RISE in defiance of the injustices women suffer, demanding an end at last to violence against women.
